5 1/2 years ago Sarah splashed out and purchased me a lovely wallet as a birthday present.

Wallets get a hard time with me so normally they are torn apart after 18-36 months and need replaced

Yet some how 5 1/2 years on this one still looks like new…

On a similar note, today we tried to donate our two couches to the British Heart Foundation (as our new one has arrived).

The are perfectly good couches, although it’s fair to say they are showing the marks and scrapes you would expect from 3 1/2 years of use…

the Heart foundation turned up and wouldn’t take them due to some of the marks? Apparently they only accept items in perfect condition!!!

Perhaps it’s just me, but when did charity’s stop accepting free donated items?
